Janelle Gunther. '92, studentrepresentative to the Committe/'"on the Science Requirement;spoke about the proposed imple-mentation of a biology require-lent. Gunther felt.that the biolo-gy requirement "will probablypass" at the May 15 faculty meet-ing. At that meeting, the facultywill'vote on a proposal to requirebiology as part of the GeneralInstitute Requirements by elimi-nating one, Science Distribution.requirement. .

Thus.far, 'the biggest objectionto the biology requirement hascome from the chemical engi-

neering ' department .'whose un-dergra'duates. must also take Gen-eral Biochemistry (7.05).

'Gunther also'spoke about the.... ibiliy of administering a

diagnostic mathematics test to'freslhmen. She said the adminis-'tration is considering giving thetest during Residence/OrientatiOn'Week or during the first week ofclasses'. It 'Wa's' alternately -"pro-posed that the test be mailed-toincoming freshmen over the. sum-

ruer, but Gunther said, "[thiscould] scare' our students away."

Prior to the meeting, UAC Se-nior House Representative Mi-chael J. Bauer '91 said the initial'recommendations he had seenearlier "looked good, except fora few points.' Bauer objected toboth the "effective prohibitionon using house taxes towards thepurchase of alcohol' and to thecreation of a new dean, express-ing uncertainty about what thefull-time responsibilities of thedean could be.- , '

During discussion, UAC EastCampus Representative Christine

M. Coffey '93 said the' recom-mendations to create a dean foralcohol education and to'prevent'house taxes from being used foralcohol seemed to "treat studentslike minors" rather than adults.

Another student criticized thehouse tax recommendation bysaying, "Just because the · admin-istration touches house tax, mon-ey, and gives it out to the dormi-tories, doesn't give them soleauthority over it."

Other students objected -to thealcohol policy saying many of theproposed recommendations sim-ply reiterated state law. Other UA,

members objected to the creationof a new dean because -of the

"sole responsibility.he wouldhave" over all students.

An APC member responded tocriticism by saying, "There are anumber of different groups' atMIT who have responsibility forstudents, but none have sole re-sponsibility. The dean for alcohol'will have responsibility, but hewill not be a' disciplinarian."

What America-Cannot. ?impose by, force of. arms -weseemltoi be, able toimpose by f Orc e of HotWings.

Throughout the country, the.uniform attitude I encountered was: that :the' war had: ended 16- yearsago, and it was time'to look forward,. not back-ward. The effects of years;.of war,: first against -theJapanese, then .the French, :then_:_ the. Americans,nonetheless dominate the consciousness of Viet-,'namese today. .Everybd -.witt h rhom I ospoke hadlost relatives at some pointt wars, on- one -Sie_o/6r'. the Other.,' :' I . ::': ' :;

'Traveling· thlouilgh: the lush"Sh!:ountryside -of. ;": :mostly agrarian societ,:.it' is, hard to imagine anyonemaking war in such'balebiau e ; I but'beforelong the evidence'popi into -view,; from the roadsidepillbox,..to the bullet-:cr'e'a-ses: in .iwhat is left. of theroyal palace in Hue (mostly destroyed in 1946 and,in the 1968 Tet offensive), to the hiuge; weeded-overair base, outside'Da Nang.- - :

Every city.I visited ' Ho.: Chi' Minh, Da Nang,Hue and Hanoi-- h aAmerican WarCrimes:'Museum. The somewhat j umbledpresentnations}, at tthese museums provide insightainto, 'Vietnameseper.ceptions. Along .with exihibits on:. the My, Lai massa-cre, for example,' there-are -ones- about the use of

-tear gas, to :break upl pro-communistAdemonstra--tions, and in Ho 0Ci Mirth there'stands theguillo,"~tine used-during. French. rule to.:execute "freedomfighters.,: My. favorite: exlhibi- twas-,one -,on imp'Olrted.-.counterrevolutionary iteras:~seizedi: ?by. the.;.~.goWM.ment,, including,'a case of heavy metal T-shits,. My,.,guide broke out laughing :awhe en'I explained that_

· people,like Tipper Gore and the Parents MusicRe.-; -source Center. probably think AC/DC -and ,poisonare. communists.',-

AR the people I met, however, .6een'the few I en-countered out of the presence of my guides, saidthey -wished more-. Americans:,would.visit. Vietnam.:(and bring AmericaadollarrS,:ofcrslourse). The Unit-,ed:Siates does not- have diplomatic:relations withvietnam, but Hanoi and Washington are talking.The sticking points :are Vietnamese involvement in,Cambodia. and -the- governmfent's, accounting forAmerican MIAs.

America's byottom hits/hard at, the Vietnameseeconomy. I could not:Use: my.; ditl cards there,could not shipany Vietniaimese godos .,inito the Unit-ed States, nor carry home 'morer ihan'$'100 worth.'

:The-Vietnameseare despately:_posr. M-y 'guide inHo Chi Mirth·told. me he -makes,,sithise-ecuivalent !of$30 a month- and his,' brother, a:-schoolteacher,makes only $i5 ;:which :eveiw·ina m is very hard

'~ (Pieaxe tumn'to page 5)::"'

:: Before visiting Vietnam, it is' -vial"to learn one'key phrase of Vietnamese: "Kong phai Lien X0,":or "I am not a Soviet." Everywhere I went in Viet-nam, children would -point at me and shout "LienXo, Lien Xo,"'or literally, "Soviet Union, SovietUnion." Apparently, the only Caucasians the Viet-Inamese see regularly are. Soviet advisers and techni-cians, who I 'am told have a bad reputation for-being cheap and unfriendly.

After trying the key phrase-with several intona-tions (Vietnamese, like many Asian languages, de-pends on inflections to convey meaning; depending,.on how you: pronounce it, for example, "ga" canmean "chicken," "train station" and probably fourother things), the listeners usually understood. Thenext step was to try to say,: 'Toi la nguoi Me," Withthe: "Me" made to sound as Jf I were asking a ques-tion, to convey the fact' that:I was an American.Surprisingly to,me, this' assertion was never greetedwith hostiity .

One afternoon in Da Nang, I ditched my guideand 'decided' to head for Non Nuoc, the site of the.,US R&R base at, China Beach about I0'miles out oftown. All iraes -of the base are gone, but there is a..

~:,hotel sitting on -the sanid dunes of the long, pristine.beach.:I had bee'n-there a few days before, enjoyingthe big breakers ,as heyr ole d ashore , ' alone except@for two Soviet touris'try 0ffi'cials.'

So I headed for the short-haul bus station:--ac-tually a dirt parking lot filled with covered pick;-uptrucks, within bench -on each side of the flatbed.There ,is of course no schedule; the bus-leaves whenfull. As I sat there for·45 minutes waiting for thedeparture, a crowd gathered, mostly of children. Iused the key phrase and explained that I was Amer-ican, generating -excitement and curiosity. "No one inthe crowd spoke English, and th~ Vietnamese

,. phrases in mqy Lonely, Planet guidebook'were: notreally ..helpful. (e.g., 'i would like a bowl of trainstati f·andnoodle soup;',":`ti'east:the Way i.wouid

:~ have pronounced it).

: ThrougfhoUt the country,'the!' Unif rm attitude I .:..-.

'enhbou:ntered? was-that thewa-r had ended, 1 6 years-.ago, and it .was) ime tolook'forward., not -backward.

The :crowd did enjoy see!'og'the pictures of'theircountry, Laos 4nd'Cambodi';' and passed the bookback and forth among themselves. The--children,

I 'however, were fascinated with my legs: They hadnever seen any with hair'on them. So One by onethey Would sidle: up to me, casuallyrest ia hand onmy knee, -and try a'-couple of nonchalant brushes,The next edition,, of the guidebook really 'should-contain: the phrase, "Please "do not caress .my.shins." i supposeI 'could have discouraged ~them;'.:but l was trying real hard to appear as easygo'rag

"and unaffected a's'they;-- -

Unless the novelty of "Ramones"catches on in a big way, you may neverhear 1916 on the radio. This is probably agoodt-hing. Aside from the fact that air-play time is usually inversely proportionalto substance, 1916 might finally put thatfirst wrinkle in Dick Clark's eternallyyouthful face.

l metal musical form into being. Since then,bands like Metallica, Megadeth and ,jTesta-

'--ment -have explored and reflined thrash's...ra.w.expressive Dower. These. bands have-produced some excellent material, but 10

years. lateri, much of the original vigor ofthe thrash-metal genre has died-outtluck-ily, Motorhead has returned to :{4fjore-fimnt ,with this shot of fresh, reji-Gatingmaterial. ...."-

~~On -1916, the band is in top form.(? Ciishing guitar riffs and meaty percussion

.power the Motrhead music machine be-hind Lemmy "Been Smoking Camels sinceI was 3" Kilminster's gritty howl. The high

points of the; album are, the blisteringopening :track, -"The One-to 'Sing theBlues," the desperately textured "Love MeForever," and the genuine., rocking tribute"Ramones."

"The One to Sing the Blues" showcasesthe tight, .driving percussion of drummerPhilthy Animal (son of M r. and Mrs. Ani-mal?) and the aggressive, twin-guitar at-tack of Phil Wizzo Campbell and WurzelBurston. The song kicks in with a tum-bling drum flurry-and then breaks into anopen highway jam. -Fast; time Changes andabrupt pauses display the band's adroit,'

-accurate musicianship and contribute to afresh; !ive atmosphere.

Surprisingly, Motorhead effectivelyadapts their fast, raw sound to the slow,

melody-based "Love Me Forever y Withthe opening line "Love me forever,. or notat a!l,"., Yi-Lnnster' .!yrics set the stagefor

. a, pained, .grinding, plea. .for .loyalty andhonesty in a world of chaos and corrup-tion; The dark mood of the song is taste-

fully accented with two soulful lead breaksfrom guitaristrampbell. With soaring dy-,namics and a tasteful treatments of tone.and temp0 ,"C-mpbell's solo0 cmplementand enrich the melancholy texture of thesong.

"Ramones" begins with the infamous"one, two, three, four .... " and jumpsstraight into an adrenaine-pumped cele-bration of that band. The lyrics and the-song structure are both modeled after theRamones' distinctive, playful format. Thissong suggests an interesting link betweenthe Ramones and Motorhead. Motorheadhas mixed punk and heavy metal in thesame, way that the Ramones blended punkand pop. Of course, the song lasts anentire one minute and 20 seconds.

Other interesting spots on 1916 includethe hilarious "Angel City." Here, Kilmin-ster mocks the Los Angeles glamour-rocksuperstars with passages like, "I wannagrow my hair, live in Bel Air, lose myhead, keep a live snake in my bed, Iwanna backstage pass,-drink Boar Jorvi's:booze for free." The lyrics are backedup by a 12-bar, Chuck Berryish stomp

By Adam BrookOn Thursday underdog MIT

upset Babson 7-2 to win theConstitution Athletic ConferenceBaseball Championship Tourna-ment. Consistent pitching byMIT ace Peter Hinteregger '93and a complete loss of nerve byBabson in the seventh let MITeliminate the league leaders.

This victory is the high pointthus far in the Engineer's season ,which has yielded a disappointing.250 win percentage in the Con-stitution league. Babson, witha .643 win percentage in theleague, went into the game ex-pecting an easy win over the MITsquad.

But Hinteregger kept the Bab-son bats cold with af low fastballand a sneaky changeup. Thechilly wind and fine rain thatthreatened to delay the gamedidn't perturb Hinteregger at all.

"It was a fine day to pitch,"said Hinteregger, claimed to be inhis element on cloudy, dismaldays. A tall, thin stick-figure onthe mound, Hinteregger in his sil-ver gray uniform blended in withthe rain clouds that descendedover Briggs Field.

And, Hinteregger acknowl-edged, having "timely hitting"can make any day nice. Hintereg-ger said, "The turning pointin the game was MIT's five-runseventh inning."

Babson's star pitcher MikeBarra, who had a 1.84 ERAonthe season and had allowed onlyseven earned runs all season long,kept the Engifieers under controluntil the seventh, allowing justtwo runs in the fourth.

Sophomore Brooks Mendellopened the inning with a littlesingle he hit just beyond Babson,shortstop Ian Baxter's mitt. MITcaptain Henry - Dotterer '91 laiddown a somewhat disappointingbunt right to Barra, who some-how seemed unable to pick theball up. Mendell raced to secondand Barra had to settle forthrowing Dotterer out at first.

Facing freshman JonathanGass, Barra seemed to shake onthe mound - perhaps from thecold wind that seemed to pick upas he started his windup. Gasslined the pitch straight back toBarra, but the ball bounced outof Barra's glove. Mendell reachedthird and Gass made it to firstwell ahead of shortstop Baxter'sthrow.

But Babson coach Paul Do-nato chose to keep his star pitch-er in, even though Barra ap-peared to have lost his cool onthe mound. Barra appeared tostart his windup and then stop,turning his head to watch Gassleaving first, though no balk wascalled.

Barra then consecutively hitMIT batters Dan Paulsen '93 andJohn Mueller '94 - first loadingthe bases and then scoring Men-dell, giving. MIT a 3-2 lead. Stillcoach Donato kept Barra on themound.

Scott Toussaint '91 laid down anice bunt along the third baseline as Dotterer ran home. Barrafielded the bunt and lookedhome but did not throw, as Dot-terer was already there.

But Barra seemed transfixed,forgetting about Toussaint rnn-ning towards first. By the timeBarra's teammates could yell toBarra to throw to first, Toussaintwas already there, safe.

But coach Donato kept Barraon the'mound.

Dan Sabanosh '94 then hit alittle bobbler that Babson short-stop lan Baxter couldn't handle:Paulson ran home, and the bases

remained loaded for MIT fresh-man Ian Somerville.

"The guys, the middlefielders,were in. He hung a curve. Iknocked it through my hands,"Somerville said. He slapped theball between shortstop and thirdbase. "It was a cheesey hitactually."

Cheesey or not, it scoredMueller and Toussaint, and withthe score now 7-2 put the Engi-neers well out of Babson's reach.

The high point of the gamefor Babson was a towering solohomer by freshman Dave Di-Gangi. "I just dinked it outtahere," DiGangi said.
